The Victoria Golden Tide College baseball team is now into the final two weeks of a successful  inaugural fall season in the Canadian College Baseball Conference (CCBC) and they have added a game and some other events that fans and players alike will enjoy!

THIS WEEKEND, October 23rd and 24th
Saturday
The VI College Prep Mariners head to town for a doubleheader beginning at 1:00 pm at Wilson’s Group Stadium.  The Mariners are based in Nanaimo and play in the U18 College Prep Division of BC Minor Baseball and are the 2021 Provincial Champions at that level.  Tickets are just $5.00 and $10.00 and available at the gate. Children 12 and under are free.

Sunday
The Parksville Royals visit for a doubleheader beginning at 1:00 pm at Wilson’s Group Stadium.

Tickets are just $5.00 and $10.00 and available at the gate. Children 12 and under are free.

WINTER COAT DRIVE
Fans coming to any of the games on Saturday or Sunday, or to the game on October 30th (see below) can bring any used fall or winter jacket to the game and receive a free ticket for entry. All jackets will be donated to Our Place Society for them to distribute to those in need.  Fans may also drop jackets off at the HarbourCats / Golden Tide office at 101-1814 Vancouver Street.

INTERSQUAD WORLD SERIES DATES SET! Wed-Fri October 27 – 29

GAME ADDITION: ONTARIO GIANTS COME TO TOWN
The Ontario Giants Baseball Program is coming to town and they will play the Victoria Golden Tide on Saturday, October 30th at ~3:00 PM in a single nine-inning game, the last formal game of the 2021 fall season.  Admission as per normal, $5.00 and $10.00.
